And bless his uberkuhlische herzlein, he didn't just start twittering from the DJ booth, he had to put out a press release announcing it. The whole idea of DJing is that it should be an absorbing enough task that you don't have time to screw around with your iPhone every few minutes. And more than that, what DJ wants to play in front of a crowd glued to their cellies?
I think Richie is an OK guy -- really, I'm not being sarcastic. But he needs to get out of the freaking echo chamber he's built up around himself. Can you imagine -- just as an example -- Omar-S twittering from the DJ Booth? DJ Bone? Buzz Goree? Theo Parrish? Ron Hardy? Those guys don't need technology to mediate between them and their audience -- they're ALREADY INTERACTING INTIMATELY WITH THEIR AUDIENCE.
